I use a Topsider oil extractor. The poly dipstick tube is .250" O.D. (1/4), and the I.D. is .1875" (3/16). I think 5/16 O.D. might work, or it might not. I'm sure I would get a faster drain with the larger diameter tubing.
Maybe the smaller tube contributed to the end result you experienced. I don't know. Hope my limited experience helps.
